Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 844: The Defense Guide


"Good morning Sirius, where have you been just now?" Lupin stuck his head out of the kitchen, looked at Sirius who had just entered the tent, and asked suspiciously, "Why do you look unhappy?"

"I just went to Ludo Bagman, who only paid half the Galleons last night." Sirius had no sympathy for Bagman, who was trying to default.

"When did you bet?" Lupin looked at Sirius in shock, never expecting his old friend to bet money secretly, which is not a good thing.

"I thought you would care more about how much I won." Sirius pulled a chair and sat down, putting his legs on the table, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Okay, how much did you win?" Lupin asked helplessly.

"Probably...a thousand Galleons," said Sirius.

"How much?" Lupin's eyes widened in disbelief.

"A thousand Galleons," repeated Sirius in shock.

"Don't gamble, just take it when you see it!" Lupin tried his best to persuade Sirius, completely ignoring the black smoke that was slowly rising from the pot. He really couldn't understand why his old friend took the risk of gambling. What if he lost, how many Galleons he had to bet if he could win a thousand Galleons?

"Bagman didn't have enough Galleons to pay me, so he suggested that I keep betting." Sirius glanced at Lupin, who had a slightly gloomy face, and said casually, "I've agreed, anyway, those bets Long earned everything, it doesn't matter if he loses all, let alone I don't necessarily lose."

Lupin was silent. He also knew that he was not qualified to preach to Sirius, and finally said: "Don't be too greedy, just accept it when you see it." Then he turned back to the kitchen to continue making breakfast.

"Lose, I will lose? No, I will not lose."

Sirius had an odd smile on his face. He didn't think he would lose, and the money wasn't entirely his, half of it belonged to Albert.

Actually, Sirius doesn't like gambling either, but yesterday he met with Albert, and the two privately reached a certain agreement.

Well, they did make a lot of money, and the hapless Bagman lost a lot of Galleons because of it.

However, Sirius has no sympathy for Bagman.

If Ludo Bagman hadn't tried to lure him into betting, Sirius wouldn't necessarily have agreed to Albert.

Well, that's a lame excuse. In Sirius' view, why didn't Kanon make a profit?

Not an idiot.

Moreover, according to Albert's tone, Ludo Bagman is not reliable, otherwise Albert would not ask him to take back at least half of the Galleons after winning the bet.

"Good morning, Sirius." Harry appeared in the dining room clutching his yawn, sniffing the burnt smell in the air, and said in surprise, "It's rare to see Professor Lupin burn his rice, by the way, What were you talking about."

"Nothing Harry." Sirius didn't want Harry to get into the habit of gambling, and changed the subject by saying, "Lupin and I have already planned to start a Defence Against the Dark Arts magazine called The Defence Guide." /

After initial discussions with Lupin, Sirius intends to accept Albert's proposal to open a magazine related to Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Considering that Lupin once served as a professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, he has a natural advantage in the field of Defence Against the Dark Arts. Sirius has also spent most of his life fighting against dark wizards, which is a comparison in itself. Proficiency in profession.

Working in a field you are good at and like makes it easier for people to stay enthusiastic, invest more energy, and be more likely to succeed.

Of course, it is not easy to open a magazine store. Lupin and Sirius have no experience in this area. Who will be the editor-in-chief?

It's not surprising that if you open a store rashly and enter a field you don't know about, you're likely to fall for it, or even lose a lot of money.

"A magazine like Witch's Weekly or Transfiguration Today?" Hermione asked Sirius curiously.

"Well, if it's just the two of us, it's about half a month." Sirius nodded, "It will contain some content related to Defense Against the Dark Arts. Remus should be better at this, he Used to be a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, and I could help him figure it out."

Harry and Hermione looked at each other.

To be honest, they are not very optimistic about Sirius starting a magazine, let alone becoming the editor-in-chief.

"What is Professor Lupin thinking?" Hermione asked Professor Lupin, who was busy in the kitchen.

"I think the probability of losing money is relatively high. Knowing Defence Against the Dark Arts and starting a Defence Against the Dark Arts magazine are two different things." Lupin is not as optimistic as Sirius, neither of them have extensive management experience, and they are likely to give things to screw up.

"Speaking of opening a shop, I still admire Albert. He started to pay for Fred and George to open a shop very early on." Ron sat beside Harry clutching his yawn. I don't know how many Galleons have been put into it at first, and I think their store will be a big sell."

"Maybe, he has already done a divination." Harry said without hesitation, "Sirius, if you want to open a shop, you can go to Albert for a divination."

"Harry, there are limits to divination," Hermione disagreed with Harry.

"Are you really going to open a weekly magazine?" Lupin brought the food from the kitchen and asked Blake, who was thinking seriously~IndoMTL.com~ the won Kanon, even if he lost everything in the end Don't feel bad either. "

This is actually one of the reasons why Sirius agreed to help Albert, he needed to find an excuse to convince Remus to help start a weekly Observatory.

Otherwise, he will never agree, and a windfall is the best excuse for being speechless, with the slogan "I don't feel bad if I lose everything."

"Losing money? I think you can ask Albert for help. As long as the price is right, he will definitely help." Ron suggested.

According to him, Fred and George had very clear ideas and plans for opening a store, and most of these were suggested by Albert. Moreover, Albert writes wonderfully for magazines, and clearly knows better than them how to summarize the content of a magazine, if Albert can certainly provide them with many constructive suggestions.

However, how to convince Albert to help is actually more difficult. If you want Albert to contribute, naturally you must give the other party enough benefits, but Garon Albert obviously doesn't see it, so what should you use to convince him?

In the end, it was Ron's words that woke up Sirius. His own industry is naturally different from other people's industries. If Sirius can bring Albert into the business, the other party will naturally not watch the store. Pull them across the store.

And Sirius' purpose is just to find a job for Lupin, as long as he doesn't lose money, Sirius can accept it.
